£37.74(£45.29 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Slim & Cool carafe is a straightforward, well-made glass carafe designed for table beverage service. The slim profile keeps it practical to handle and easy to pour from, and the 1000ml capacity gives a reasonable number of serves per fill — typically enough for a table of two to four guests depending on the drink being served.
In a busy restaurant or café setting, these carafes hold up well under the demands of repeated use and regular dishwasher cycles. The glassware is dishwasher-safe, which matters in a service environment where speed of turnaround between covers is important. The slim shape also makes storage between services more manageable than wider-bodied alternatives.
- Practical for water, juice, iced tea, or infused drinks
- Dishwasher-safe for efficient turnaround during service
- Slim profile aids handling and storage on busy stations
- Sold in a pack of six, suited to stocking a section or topping up existing stock
These carafes are best suited to restaurants, cafés, and bistros looking for clean, unfussy tableware for water or cold drink service. They are not specialist barista or wine service vessels — for those applications, purpose-specific glassware would be more appropriate. For higher-volume sites or venues with a more formal table setting, it is worth considering a heavier or more formal carafe range.
If you are unsure whether these fit your service style or volume requirements, the team is happy to help you work it out before you order.
£41.71(£50.05 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Ensemble Azurine carafe is a 1080ml glass serving carafe with a distinctive blue-tinted wave profile. It is designed for table service of water, wine, juice, and other chilled drinks in restaurant, hotel, and hospitality settings. Supplied in a pack of six, it is a practical choice for operators equipping a dining room or refreshing existing carafe stock.
In a busy front-of-house environment, the shaped body earns its keep. The defined curves give staff a secure grip during service, which matters when a carafe is being carried across a full dining room or poured at table. The profile also makes pouring reasonably controlled, reducing the likelihood of spills during a busy cover.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical points are straightforward:
- Dishwasher-safe, supporting quick turnaround between covers
- Consistent appearance across the pack, which matters for uniform table presentation
- Durable glass construction from an established glassware manufacturer
- Suitable for water, wine, juice, and cold soft drinks
- Pack of six makes restocking or initial equipping straightforward
As with all glass carafes in commercial use, consider how they will be stored and handled in your specific operation — dishwasher rack compatibility and storage space are worth confirming before ordering in volume.
These carafes suit restaurants, hotel dining rooms, cafés, and event catering operations looking for a presentable, practical carafe at a sensible price point. If your service volumes are particularly high or breakage rates are a persistent concern, it may be worth discussing heavier-duty or higher-volume options with us.
If you are unsure how many packs suit your covers, or want to discuss how these sit alongside other tableware you are sourcing, we are happy to help you work through it.
£22.44(£26.93 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Splendor is an 80ml shot glass with an embossed diamond pattern across the lower half of the bowl. It is a straightforward, well-made piece of glassware designed for serving spirits, liqueurs, and shooters in bar and hospitality environments.
Royal Leerdam is a long-established Dutch glassware manufacturer with a reputation for producing durable, commercial-grade glass. The Splendor range reflects that — the construction is solid enough to handle the repeated washing, handling, and occasional knocks that come with fast-paced bar service, and the embossed detailing adds a degree of visual interest without compromising practicality.
From an operational standpoint, the glasses offer a few practical advantages worth noting:
- Dishwasher-safe construction suited to high-turnover bar environments
- Embossed lower half provides a more secure grip during service
- Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for stocking or replacing existing covers
- Consistent sizing supports accurate spirit measures and clean presentation
These glasses are well suited to pubs, bars, restaurants, and hotels serving shots or measures as part of a drinks menu. They sit comfortably in a mid-range position — more considered in appearance than a basic utility shot glass, without the fragility that sometimes comes with heavily decorative glassware.
If you are building out a full glassware range or need guidance on quantities for your covers, the team is happy to help you work through what makes sense for your operation.
£17.38(£20.86 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Slim & Cool Double Old Fashioned glass is a straightforward, well-proportioned tumbler suited to bar and restaurant service. The slim profile gives it a cleaner visual line than a traditional squat old fashioned glass, making it a practical choice for operators who want something that works equally well for cocktails, soft drinks, juices, and water service without requiring a separate glass for each.
Royal Leerdam is a long-established Dutch glassware manufacturer with a strong presence in the commercial hospitality sector. Their glasses are designed with repeated machine washing in mind, and the Slim & Cool range holds up well under the daily demands of a busy service environment. The construction is robust enough for regular use without being unnecessarily heavy to handle or stack.
- Dishwasher-safe for efficient turnaround during service
- Consistent sizing supports portion control for measured pours
- Slim profile stacks and stores efficiently behind the bar
- Versatile enough for cocktails, soft drinks, and juice service
- Supplied in a pack of six, suited to topping up existing stock
These glasses are a sensible choice for cafés, restaurants, hotel bars, and casual dining operations looking for reliable everyday glassware that doesn't require special handling. They aren't a specialist cocktail glass or a premium crystal option — they sit comfortably in the mid-range and are priced accordingly. For higher-volume sites or those wanting a larger pack format, alternatives are available in the catalogue.
If you're unsure which glass styles best suit your service style or menu, we're happy to talk it through.
£19.46(£23.35 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Splendor Double Old Fashioned tumbler is a short, weighted glass designed for spirits, rocks pours, and classic short cocktails. The embossed diamond pattern around the body is a signature detail of the Splendor range, giving the glass a distinctive presence on the bar without veering into novelty territory. These are sold in packs of six, making them a practical starting point for bars looking to trial the range or top up existing stock.
Royal Leerdam glassware is produced with commercial use in mind. The Splendor tumblers are dishwasher-safe and built to tolerate the repeated thermal cycling that comes with high-turnover bar service. The embossed design also adds a degree of grip in service, which is a practical advantage during busy periods when glassware is handled quickly.
- Dishwasher-safe for consistent, efficient back-of-bar turnaround
- Embossed diamond design provides grip and a clean visual identity
- Well suited to spirits, cocktails on the rocks, and short mixed drinks
- Sold in packs of six for straightforward stock management
These tumblers are a sensible choice for bars, restaurants, and hotels that want a reliable, recognisable glass that holds its appearance over time. If you're building out a full glassware range or need guidance on quantities for your cover count, the team are happy to help you work through what's right for your operation.
£19.46(£23.35 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Slim & Cool is a 420ml tall beverage glass designed for everyday commercial use. The straight, gently tapered profile makes it well suited to water, soft drinks, juices, and iced beverages across a range of hospitality settings.
In a busy service environment, the format works reliably. The tall body stacks efficiently in glasswashers and on back-bar shelves, the shape is easy for front-of-house staff to handle at pace, and the clean profile reads consistently well across different table settings without dating quickly. Royal Leerdam glassware is produced to consistent commercial tolerances, which matters when you're running matched sets across a large outlet and need replacements to match over time.
- Dishwasher-safe, suited to high-cycle commercial glasswashers
- Classic minimalist profile that fits most table settings
- Comfortable to hold during service and easy to carry multiples
- Consistent form makes restocking matched sets straightforward
As with any commercial glassware, it's worth considering throughput when choosing pack quantities. For high-volume venues — busy bars, large restaurant covers, or contract catering — buying in greater quantity upfront reduces per-unit cost and keeps spares on hand. For lower-volume operations, a six-pack offers a practical starting point.
If you're unsure how many glasses to stock for your cover count or whether this profile suits your concept, the team is happy to help you work it out before you order.
£19.46(£23.35 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Splendor Hi Ball is a 360ml long-drink glass featuring an embossed diamond pattern across the lower body. It is a straightforward, practical piece of glassware intended for bars, restaurants, and casual dining operations that want a degree of visual interest on the table without moving into premium crystal territory.
Royal Leerdam is a well-established Dutch glassware manufacturer with a long history supplying the hospitality trade. The Splendor range sits in the mid-market position — robust enough for regular commercial use and dishwasher-safe for high-turnover service, while the textured design adds enough character to lift a table setting above plain utilitarian glassware.
- Suitable for a wide range of long drinks: soft drinks, beer, cocktails, and mocktails
- Dishwasher-safe construction supports efficient turnaround during busy service
- Embossed diamond design provides grip and visual appeal without specialised handling
- Supplied in a pack of six, practical for topping up existing stock
As with most commercial glassware at this price point, the Splendor is designed for steady everyday use rather than very high-impact environments. Operations with particularly fast glass turnaround or those expecting heavy handling may wish to consider a thicker-walled or tempered alternative. The pack-of-six format suits smaller operators or those supplementing an existing set.
This glass works well in café-bars, hotel bars, casual dining restaurants, and pub environments where a clean, characterful long-drink glass is needed at a sensible price. It is less suited to fine-dining settings where a lighter, thin-rimmed glass would typically be specified.
If you are unsure whether this glass fits your service style or volume, we are happy to point you in the right direction.
£21.45(£25.74 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Rayo is a double old fashioned glass designed for bar and restaurant use. At 320ml, it sits comfortably in the double rocks format — the standard choice for spirit serves, whisky, and mixed drinks presented over ice. The distinctive rippled exterior, drawn from a sunray motif, gives the glass a considered appearance without veering into novelty territory.
Royal Leerdam produces glassware to a consistent commercial standard, and the Rayo reflects that. The Finesse laser-cut rim produces a clean, even edge that holds up well through repeated dishwasher cycles without the micro-chipping that can affect lesser-quality glassware over time. For front-of-house teams, that consistency matters — a rough rim or visible damage draws attention at the point of service.
From a practical standpoint, the Rayo works well in venues where storage and prep space are at a premium:
- Stacking rim design allows safe vertical stacking behind the bar
- Lightweight construction suits tray service without adding unnecessary weight
- Dishwasher-safe for high-turnover cleaning cycles
- Uniform shape supports consistent presentation across the pass
- Pack of 6 allows flexible par-stock management per station
These glasses are well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, pub restaurants, and any venue with a structured spirits or whisky offering. The 320ml capacity is a sensible all-round size for double measures with ice. Venues running a high-volume bar with greater throughput may want to consider buying in larger case quantities to maintain adequate par levels during busy service periods.
If you're building out a glassware range or want to talk through quantities and mix of styles for a new or refurbished venue, the team is happy to help.
£21.45(£25.74 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Rayo is a 270ml old fashioned glass designed for bar and restaurant use. Its defining feature is a ribbed exterior pattern that runs vertically around the body, giving it a distinctive look without veering into anything overly decorative. The glass sits comfortably in the hand and presents spirits, cocktails, and soft drinks well without requiring any particular setup or garnish to look presentable.
At 260g, the Rayo is light enough to handle easily during tray service without feeling flimsy. The laser-cut rim produces a clean, even edge that drinks neatly from — a practical detail that matters more than it might seem during a busy service. The ribbed profile also provides a degree of grip, which is useful when glasses are wet or when staff are moving quickly.
For back-of-house practicality, the Rayo is built with a stacking rim that allows glasses to nest securely. This keeps storage organised and reduces the footprint on the bar or in the glasswash area. The glass is dishwasher safe, which is a baseline requirement for any commercial glassware used at volume.
- Stackable design reduces storage space and keeps bar areas tidy
- Laser-cut rim for a smooth, consistent drinking edge
- Lightweight at 260g — well suited to tray service
- Ribbed profile improves grip during busy service
- Dishwasher safe for straightforward daily cleaning
The Rayo suits bars, hotel lounges, restaurants, and casual dining operations looking for a reliable everyday old fashioned glass with a clean aesthetic. It is not a premium crystal piece, but it is a well-made glass from a long-established manufacturer. If you are unsure whether the capacity or style fits your service concept, we are happy to help you think it through.
£21.45(£25.74 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Rayo is a 360ml hi-ball glass designed for bar and restaurant use. It features a distinctive rippled exterior profile and a laser-cut rim, and is sold in packs of six.
In everyday service, the Rayo performs reliably as a general-purpose hi-ball for long drinks, soft drinks, and cocktails. The laser-cut rim produces a clean, even edge that holds up well through repeated dishwasher cycles without the roughness that can develop on cheaper pressed glassware. The rippled profile gives the glass a confident grip in the hand, which is a practical consideration during busy tray service.
- Laser-cut rim for a smooth, consistent drinking edge
- Rippled exterior profile aids handling during tray service
- Stacking rim allows space-efficient storage behind the bar
- Dishwasher safe for straightforward glass wash turnaround
- Lightweight construction suits high-volume tray carrying
The stacking rim is worth noting for venues where back-bar storage is tight. Glasses that stack cleanly reduce breakage risk during storage and speed up restocking between service periods. Being dishwasher safe, the Rayo fits into standard commercial glass wash cycles without special handling.
These glasses are well suited to bars, casual dining restaurants, and hotels serving long drinks or cocktails at volume. They work equally well for soft drink and water service. For venues requiring a larger format hi-ball or a specific branded look, there are other sizes and profiles in the Royal Leerdam range worth considering.
If you are specifying glassware for a new opening or looking to standardise across a site, we are happy to talk through quantities and format options.
£30.29(£36.35 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Doyenne coupe is a 300ml stemmed glass designed for cocktail and wine service in hospitality environments. It features a wide, high-angled bowl set on a slender stem, giving it a classic coupe profile that works equally well for sparkling wine, Champagne, and short cocktails served up.
In a busy bar or front-of-house setting, the Doyenne holds up well to the demands of regular service. The enlarged footplate provides a stable base on trays and bar tops, which matters when staff are moving quickly during peak hours. The lightweight construction makes tray service more practical without compromising the glass's presence on the table.
A few practical points worth noting for operators:
- Finesse Laser Cut Rim produces a smooth, consistent sip without sharp edges
- Enlarged footplate improves stability on trays and uneven surfaces
- Lightweight build reduces fatigue during high-volume tray service
- Dishwasher safe, supporting quick turnaround between covers
- Supplied in a pack of six, suited to topping up existing glassware stock
These glasses are dishwasher safe, which keeps turnaround times manageable in busy operations. They are not chip-proof — no stemmed glass is in a high-turnover environment — so operators running very high volumes may want to consider the ongoing replacement rate when assessing cost per use.
The Doyenne is well suited to hotels, restaurants, and cocktail bars that want a reliable, presentable coupe without a premium price point. For venues requiring greater durability or a heavier crystal feel, alternatives exist within the Royal Leerdam range and beyond.
If you are stocking glassware for a new venue or refreshing an existing range and want to talk through quantities or suitability, our team is happy to help.
£31.28(£37.54 inc VAT)
These Royal Leerdam coupe glasses have a distinctly angular bowl profile that sets them apart from the more traditional rounded coupe shape. At 300ml capacity, they're a practical size for cocktail service — large enough for a well-built drink with garnish, without being unwieldy to handle or carry on a tray. The thin stem and broader foot plate keep the glass balanced on flat bar surfaces, which matters during a busy service when speed and confidence of movement are both important.
Royal Leerdam has a long-standing reputation for producing durable glassware at a price point that makes sense for commercial operations. These coupes are dishwasher safe, which is the baseline requirement for any front-of-house glass in a professional setting. The glass construction holds up well under regular commercial washing cycles, though as with all stemmed glassware, rack positioning and handling on the pass will influence longevity.
They work well in cocktail bars, hotel bars, and restaurants where the drink presentation matters but the purchase decision also has to make financial sense. The angular styling reads as contemporary rather than overtly classic, which suits a broad range of venue aesthetics. Supplied in packs of six, they're straightforward to stock in multiples to match your cover requirements.
If you're unsure how many glasses to hold in stock relative to your covers and wash cycle time, or whether a different bowl size would suit your menu better, we're happy to talk it through.
£27.11(£32.53 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Carré port glasses are a straightforward, well-made option for venues serving port, sherry, or similar fortified wines by the glass. The angular bowl gives them a clean, contemporary profile that sits comfortably alongside modern table settings without looking out of place in more traditional environments.
Built to withstand the rigours of regular service, these glasses are dishwasher safe, which matters in any busy bar or restaurant where glassware is turned around quickly between covers. The slender stem and broad foot plate keep them stable on trays and bar tops, reducing the risk of knocks during a busy service period.
- Angular bowl design suits both contemporary and classic table settings
- Dishwasher safe, supporting fast turnaround in service
- Stable foot plate reduces the risk of tipping on trays or bar counters
- Lightweight at 110g, making them easy to handle during service
- Available in a pack of six, practical for smaller venues or supplementing existing stock
At 140ml, the capacity is appropriate for a standard port or sherry measure with a modest headspace. These are best suited to restaurants, hotels, wine bars, and private dining operations where a consistent, presentable glass is needed without a significant per-unit investment. For higher-volume operations or venues with heavy glassware turnover, it is worth considering a heavier-gauge option from the wider range.
If you are building out a glassware specification or need to match these to an existing range, feel free to get in touch — we are happy to help you work through the options.
£31.28(£37.54 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Specials Short Stem Gin Glass is a 650ml cocktail glass from a range designed specifically for hospitality environments serving speciality drinks. The angled bowl profile gives the glass a contemporary look while providing practical headroom for garnishes, ice, and generous pours — the kind of presentation expected in a bar or restaurant gin and cocktail service.
In a busy bar environment these glasses handle the demands of repeated service well. The short stem keeps the glass stable on the pass and reduces the risk of toppling during high-volume service periods, which matters when staff are moving quickly. At 200g, they sit in a comfortable middle ground — substantial enough to feel considered in the hand, without being cumbersome to handle in volume.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical points are straightforward:
- Large 650ml capacity suits ice-heavy cocktail and gin serves without overflow
- Dishwasher safe, supporting efficient glasswashing turnaround during service
- Short stem profile improves stability on bar tops and trays
- Angled bowl shape accommodates garnishes cleanly without crowding the rim
- Supplied in a pack of six, practical for topping up existing stock
These glasses are well suited to bars, gastropubs, hotel bars, and restaurant cocktail programmes where a consistent, presentable gin or cocktail glass is needed across the floor. They are not a heavy-duty stackable format, so operations running extremely high cover counts with rapid glasswasher cycles may want to consider whether a more robust specification is appropriate for their throughput.
If you are selecting glassware across multiple cocktail categories or want to ensure the style sits well with your existing ranges, our team is happy to help you work through the options.
£32.28(£38.74 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Specials range is designed for hospitality venues that take their drinks presentation seriously. These tall stem gin glasses feature an angled bowl profile that provides ample room for ice, botanicals, and garnishes — the kind of build that has become standard in gin and cocktail service. They are supplied in packs of six, making them practical for topping up existing stocks or setting up a new service.
In a busy bar environment, glasses need to perform consistently and recover quickly through a dishwasher cycle without clouding or marking. These glasses are dishwasher safe and, at 210g, sit in a weight range that balances durability with a quality feel in the hand. The tall stem keeps condensation away from the hand during service, which is a practical consideration during a busy shift.
Key operational characteristics worth noting:
- Dishwasher safe — suitable for high-turnover bar operations
- Angled bowl accommodates generous ice and garnish builds
- Tall stem design reduces heat transfer from hand to drink
- Supplied in a pack of six for straightforward stock management
- Lightweight enough for comfortable handling during extended service
These glasses are best suited to bars, restaurants, and hotels serving gin and tonic, gin cocktails, or similar long drinks. The 650ml capacity supports a full serve with ice without the glass appearing sparse. They are not intended for high-impact environments where heavyweight or tempered glassware would be more appropriate — sites with high breakage rates may want to consider more robust alternatives.
If you are specifying glassware across multiple covers or matching to an existing range, feel free to get in touch — it is often worth a brief conversation before committing to quantity.
£27.11(£32.53 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Adora tumbler is a mid-capacity all-purpose glass suited to wine, soft drinks, water, and cocktail service. The ribbed embossing around the bowl gives the glass a traditional, considered appearance without being fussy — practical enough for a busy dining room, presentable enough for a more formal setting.
The bowl profile is shaped to allow a degree of aeration, which makes these glasses a reasonable choice where house wine is served by the glass rather than poured to order from a bottle. In practice, that means they work well on restaurant tables and at function bars where staff are pouring quickly and guests expect a proper glass rather than a plain tumbler.
For day-to-day service, the key practical points are:
- Dishwasher safe, which keeps them in rotation without hand-polishing between every use
- Consistent shape across the pack, which matters when glasses are stacked or racked in a glasswasher
- At 120g each, a manageable weight for front-of-house staff handling multiple glasses per trip
These are glass items, so stacking depth, racking configuration, and glasswasher basket sizing are worth thinking through before ordering in volume. If you're equipping a new site or replacing a large quantity of damaged stock, it's sensible to confirm your glasswasher basket dimensions will accommodate the 85mm base diameter.
The Adora range is well suited to casual dining restaurants, hotel food and beverage operations, and function venues looking for a reliable everyday wine or drinks glass. If you need a higher-capacity glass for long drinks or a smaller option for shots and tasting portions, we have alternatives across the range.
If you're unsure how many packs to order for your covers or want to check compatibility with your current racking, the team is happy to help you work it through.
£26.61(£31.93 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Carré port glasses are a straight-sided, angular port glass designed for front-of-house use in restaurants, hotels, wine bars, and any venue serving port, sherry, or fortified wines by the glass. The distinctive geometric bowl gives the glass a contemporary appearance without straying into impractical territory — these are working glasses designed to be used regularly, not set-piece display pieces.
The angled bowl shape helps concentrate the aromas of fortified wines appropriately, which matters when serving to customers who know what they are drinking. The stem is slim enough to look considered on the table, while the wider foot provides a stable base that resists knocking during busy service — a practical detail that reduces breakages on a well-set table or a crowded bar top.
For operational purposes, the key advantages are straightforward:
- Dishwasher safe, reducing handling time between covers
- Lightweight at 120g, making tray handling comfortable across a full shift
- Consistent angular profile makes stacking and storage straightforward
- Clean geometric lines suit both modern and more traditional table settings
These glasses are well suited to smaller venues, private dining, or as part of a considered dessert wine or digestif offering. They are sold in packs of six, which suits operators who want to introduce or extend a fortified wine serve without committing to a full case. For higher-volume operations or venues going through significant glassware turnover, larger pack quantities or a more robust specification may be worth considering.
If you are building out a glassware range and want to talk through how this fits alongside your existing covers, the team is happy to help.
£21.45(£25.74 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam L'Esprit du Vin port glasses are part of a range developed in collaboration with a sommelier and a wine association, with the result being a glass that feels considered rather than generic. The 140ml capacity is appropriate for a standard port measure served in a hospitality setting, and the overall design reflects how these glasses will actually be used in service rather than just how they look on a shelf.
In a busy restaurant or banqueting environment, glassware takes a great deal of punishment. The L'Esprit du Vin port glass addresses this with a wider base plate that reduces the likelihood of tipping on trays or during service, and a finely laser-cut rim that gives a clean, smooth drinking experience without sharp edges. Both details matter when glasses are turning over quickly through multiple covers.
For operators running high-volume service, a few practical points are worth noting:
- Laser-cut rim for a smooth, consistent finish across the range
- Wider foot plate reduces instability on trays and during service
- Dishwasher safe, supporting fast turnaround between covers
- Lightweight at 90g, easing handling during busy service periods
- Sold in packs of six, suited to incremental stock building
These glasses are well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, wine bars, and banqueting operations that serve port or fortified wine regularly. They are a sensible mid-range option for venues where presentation matters but resilience under daily use is equally important. If your operation runs very high cover counts or requires a larger opening stock, it is worth considering how many packs you will need to maintain adequate par levels through a full service.
If you are unsure how many to order for your operation or want to discuss building out a broader glassware range, we are happy to help you work through it.
£26.01(£31.21 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam L'Esprit du Vin double old fashioned glass is a purpose-designed spirit and cocktail glass developed in collaboration with a sommelier and a wine association. At 330ml it sits comfortably within the double old fashioned format — a versatile size that handles straight spirits, rocks pours, and simple cocktail builds equally well.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, the design holds up well under the demands of repeated service. The thick base adds meaningful stability on trays and bar tops, reducing the likelihood of knock-overs during high-volume turns. The finely laser-cut rim delivers a clean, consistent drinking edge — a detail that matters when you are serving guests who notice the small things.
From an operational standpoint, the glass is straightforward to work with:
- Laser-cut rim for a smooth, refined drinking experience
- Weighted base reduces tip risk during tray service and busy bar runs
- Fully dishwasher safe, supporting quick turnaround between covers
- Consistent 330ml capacity suits standardised spirits measures and cocktail recipes
- Stackable profile helps with storage in tight back-bar conditions
There are no special handling or storage requirements beyond standard glassware care. As with all commercial glassware, running through a glasswasher rather than a high-temperature dishwasher will extend service life and protect clarity over time.
This glass suits restaurants, hotel bars, cocktail bars, and banqueting operations where a reliable, presentable spirit glass is needed in volume. For sites requiring a larger format — for premium long pours or branded serves — it is worth considering a higher-capacity alternative from the range.
If you are specifying glassware across a full opening or refurbishment, or unsure whether this size suits your drinks menu, the team is happy to talk it through.
£28.60(£34.32 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Carré Grandi Vini is a large-format wine glass designed for serving full-bodied reds and premium whites in a restaurant or bar setting. The distinctive angular bowl is the defining characteristic of the Carré range — it gives the glass a contemporary look without straying into novelty territory, making it a practical choice for operators who want a point of difference on the table without compromising function.
In service, the glass handles well. The broader foot provides a stable base on busy tables and during clearing, and the stem is proportioned to keep the glass balanced at this larger capacity. At 530ml, it sits comfortably in the large wine glass category — generous enough to allow proper swirling and aeration without becoming unwieldy for staff or guests.
- Angular bowl design adds visual interest without affecting pour or handling
- Broader foot plate reduces the risk of toppling during busy service
- Dishwasher safe, reducing handling time between service periods
- Lightweight at 150g, comfortable for extended table service
- Clear glass construction allows full appreciation of wine colour and clarity
These glasses are dishwasher safe, which matters in any operation running multiple covers. That said, as with all fine glassware, avoiding aggressive detergents and high-temperature cycles will extend their working life. They are supplied in packs of six, which suits top-up purchasing or smaller operations building stock gradually.
The Carré Grandi Vini suits restaurants, wine bars, and hotel dining rooms looking for a styled glass at a sensible price point. For very high-volume sites where breakage rates are a significant cost factor, a more utilitarian stackable or tempered option may be worth considering alongside this range.
If you're building out your glassware range or want to discuss quantities and mix of styles, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
£55.61(£66.73 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Experts water tumbler is a glass water glass designed for table service in restaurants, hotels, and bars. Part of a collection developed in collaboration with Dutch wine expert Barbara Verbeek, the range is built around a rounded bowl profile and a fine laser-cut rim — details that lend the glass a more refined feel than standard contract glassware without moving into fragile or impractical territory.
In a busy front-of-house environment, glassware needs to hold up to repeated handling, stacking, and daily dishwasher cycles. These tumblers are dishwasher safe, which matters in any operation running multiple covers. The laser-cut rim is smooth and consistent, which reduces the risk of chipping at the lip — a common failure point on lower-grade glassware that goes through heavy service.
Practical reasons operators choose this range include:
- Laser-cut rim for a consistent, smooth drinking edge
- Rounded body that sits comfortably in the hand during service
- Dishwasher safe for high-turnover use
- Glass construction — neutral taste, no taint carry-over between covers
- Supplied in a pack of six, practical for building stock gradually
As with all glassware, the 150g weight reflects a mid-weight construction — substantial enough to feel quality in the hand, but this is not a heavily tempered or toughened glass, so operations with very high breakage rates may want to consider that when deciding on stock levels. It is well suited to mid-range and premium casual dining, hotel dining rooms, and bar table service.

The Royal Leerdam Experts coupe glasses are a 270ml stemmed glass designed for cocktail and wine service in bars and restaurants. The range was developed in collaboration with Dutch wine expert Barbara Verbeek, with the bowl shape and proportions selected to suit the presentation of sparkling wine, classic cocktails, and similar serves rather than being a purely decorative choice.
In a busy bar environment, glassware takes consistent punishment — repeated washing cycles, stacking, and handling during peak service. These glasses are produced by Royal Leerdam, a manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in commercial glassware, and the construction reflects that background. The fine laser-cut rim gives a clean drinking edge, and the 6mm stem provides a practical hold without being fragile in normal service conditions.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical points are:
- Dishwasher safe, which suits most commercial glasswasher cycles
- Lightweight at 130g, reducing handling fatigue during busy service
- Consistent bowl shape supports uniform presentation across a table
- Sold in packs of six, making stock management straightforward
- Fine laser-cut rim for a clean, comfortable drinking edge
At 173mm tall with an 89mm bowl diameter, these are a standard coupe size and will fit most commercial glass storage and glasswasher racks without issue. There are no particular installation requirements — these are ready to use as delivered.
These glasses are well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, and restaurant front-of-house operations looking for a reliable, presentable coupe at a sensible price point. For operators needing larger quantities or considering a full glassware range across multiple styles, it is worth talking through requirements before ordering to ensure consistency across the selection.
If you have questions about which glassware suits your service style or volume, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
